Community notes from Oxford Junction and surrounding towns
The Oxford Junction Methodist group met August 4 at the church parlors led by Mrs. Martin Neff. Funding decisions included sending 20 to the society pledge, with reports from Monticello. The program featured Sunday school activities, youth work, and a Sharing Jar display. DAVID NEFF and others attend a Freshman camp at Clear Lake. Local 4-H and American Legion Auxiliary events, meetings, demonstrations, and upcoming district activities are reported along with hospital visits, travel, and social gatherings across Jones County.
